You Know You're a Graphic Designer When... 

 

You have bags under your eyes so big you'd have to check them in at Heathrow Airport 

 

You watch the superbowl just for the commercials  

 

You can spot bad typography from 100 yds away 

 

You are pro-facebook because 95% of the myspace accounts burn your retinas 

 

You can name more than 200 fonts in under five minutes 

 

You are completely immune to subliminal advertising 

 

You look upon a well-designed project with either: 

sympathy OR extreme jealousy  

 

Your hand is permanently stuck in the shape of a mouse 

(this is so true! haha)

 

You practically take caffeine intravenously  

 

You have an appreciation for everything unique 

 

You've been spending three days non-stop on a project and it still looks like shit. You 

find yourself overcome by Deathlust. 


 

"You know you're a Graphic Designer when... you buy a CD or DVD for the artwork, even 

if you have no idea what the actual music or film is like".  ( i buy anithing u name it that look artistic to me)

(even worse, you don't actually watch or listen to it, just stare at it for hours and hug it in 

adoration) 

 

"You know you're a Graphic Designer when... you look at the clock and see it's about 

midnight and think 'I'll go to bed now'... and you actually go to bed about 2-3am". 

(i seriously think my day seem to be dragging longer .)

 

"You know you're a Graphic Designer when... you need someone else to point out that 

you're sitting in a room in front of the computer with all the lights off, and haven't 

noticed" 

 

"...when you know what "kerning" is and you really, really like it." 

 

"... when you wear two [ke] [rn] pins on your bag, and only you know what the mean. To 

others its probably a band of sorts.." 

 

Forget the boy-wonder and the man of steel; your heroes have names like 'Tibor Kalman', 

'Stefan Sagmeister', 'Paul Rand', and 'Paula Scher'. 


i shall stop here...continue part 2 another day .
